Entry #4 - Update: These Automatic Arms v1.1

screenshot104.png

Dear Diary,

Today I uploaded a quick update for 'These Automatic Arms': some small bug-fixes, a couple new levels, a new gameplay mechanic. It's still a 5-15 minute game, and I still don't know if it's worth fleshing out much further.

Had you the eyes with which to see it (and, of course, the arms with which to play) I think you'd enjoy the new crumbling walls. "They crumble like paper," you'd say. "Yes," I'd whisper back. "Like a real diary's paper?" "Yes, like a real book's paper, they crumble in the face of your obvious charms." "For I am the future, bright and cold?" "Yes, you are the future, my diary, my electronic diary. But show some humility. No one likes a braggart."

Yours,
nobody.

Hempuli's really depressed about falling asleep on his keyboard and missing KotMK so he and I are going to pretend it actually starts an hour from now and make some games.

(That's 10pm Beijing time because fuck your time zones.)

Any and all welcome to attend.

Make something in response to a trainwreck you like!

That's the only rule. Here are some possibilities:

  • Make an unofficial sequel!
  • Expand something minor in the original into its own thing!
  • Recreate a game as best you can, but change one important thing!
  • Maybe there's a couple of games you really like. Mash them together!
  • If something was made with tools/techniques/methods/styles/etc. that you haven't tried, try them!
  • Make it your own! Reinterpret a game doing the things you're best at!
  • Make something that isn't a game! Make a zine, comic, video, song, story, poem or anything else you can think of!

The dates are also just a suggestion. Spend the whole month, or a single hour, or spend the rest of your life on it. Make multiple things, if that's fun!

If you're having trouble finding inspiration, try out some random games!

This game just appeared fully formed on my screen and proceeded to unmake itself

Game File: 

Luckily, I managed to save a version of it before it completely disappeared.

It seems that this game is based on a future version of Klik n Play that runs entirely on Tachyons which, according to theory, actually move backwards through time. What this means is that the game was made some unknown point in the future but does not go through time in the normal way, or a way that we can even understand.

It also means that it fits the deadline criteria, since it actually existed DURING the competition, even though it was made afterwards.

Fisher Fears

Game File: 

Catch fish for money and beat those bloodthirsty sharks back from your small boat on the ocean.

From the start, you can catch any fish by clicking on it and knock sharks away by clicking on them as well. Shop upgrades and items will aid you in both areas. Eventually you'll find killer whales and they don't care whether you're shocking them or hooking them, you need to do serious damage to keep them away and that's only possible with the anti-shark items.

Shop rundown:
Nets slow fish down

Electric Rods allow you to fish by holding down the mouse button

Trash Traps are cheap and do little damage

Sea Mines instantly kill a shark/orca and damage neighbors.

Shark Hunter XS's make great long-term additions to your defense

Also, I don't support shark or whale violence. They're cool animals, don't hurt one unless you or another person are in serious danger and have no other option.

Based on a Kickstarter supporters idea:
"Player is on a boat surrounded by sharks. Fish to make money to buy anti-shark devices. Fishing tower defense!"

A fragment for Fragment Jam 2019 (WIN PRIZES) as they say https://itch.io/jam/fragmentjam

Waft about and see some boney trees grow. There are triangular birds above and grave-like pillars that swell and shrink below. You are in a sort of box but you can go out if you want. No objectives, just a place to visit.

Originally abandoned after procjam 2015. For this "release" I stole some bits from a couple of other released projects and stuffed them in, also cleaned up a little.
